Call to Artists: In the Belly of the Bird/Godmother By O, Miami Poetry Festival And Pioneer Winter Collective

In the Belly of the Bird/Godmother is a poetic-theatrical performance by Pioneer Winter, in collaboration with O, Miami, that explores how a mother’s presence endures beyond physical loss. An intergenerational cast weaves dance, spoken word, and dreamlike imagery through themes of grief, memory, and escapism.

Now the same age as his mother when she passed away at 37, choreographer Pioneer Winter wonders if an African Grey parrot—given away after her death—still carries her voice.
